3: The ii-V7-I Progression for Guitar. As with the previous adaptations, this one uses both standard and tab
notation and is correlated closely to the original edition, but speaks directly to the aspiring jazz guitarist and
addresses all of the important techniques and concepts used by jazz guitar legends to solo and comp over
ii-V7s. Completion of this easy-to-understand volume will have guitarists ready to play any song that contains
ii-V7s, including most songs of the Bebop and the Great American Songbook eras. Included are two CDs of
trio accompaniment and demonstration tracks, plus free bass and drum-only mixes available online that allow
players to "sit in" and practice without the recorded guitarist present.
